As always, a pickpocket closely monitors and selects a potential victim, tracks it down and, if the opportunity arises, secretly steals the property of the victim, usually a wallet or mobile phone. This time, the suspect did not even realize he was being watched by “invisible” police officers, although he was very careful and controlled the movement of those around him.

Police officers often discover that people keep and carry their wallets, cell phones, or other valuables in open bags, back pants pockets, or other places easily accessible to thieves in public places, markets, public transportation.
Such irresponsibility causes criminals to steal or even steal. Authorities urge residents to store their belongings more carefully in mass gathering places, on public transportation. Particular vigilance should be exercised in public transport when a bus or trolleybus has a large number of passengers, i. and. in the morning, during lunch and at night, because for pickpockets, congestion is the most favorable condition to implement their intentions.
If any part of your body is compressed during congestion, be on the lookout, as it’s not uncommon for pickpockets to artificially cause congestion when they work in groups. Also, valuables (wallets, players, cell phones, etc.) should not be kept in backpacks or bags behind their backs, as they are easy to reach when cut or opened. It is also advisable to keep wallets with documents and money in the inside pockets of the jackets or in hard-to-reach places in the bag, and to store and carry bags in the front.
The Penal Code of the Republic of Lithuania establishes a fine or arrest, or restriction of liberty, or imprisonment of up to six years for the theft of another person’s property, clothing, bag or other carrier of a person (pickpocketing).
